FPE 25 2p...

[Jim W in Tampa]

WOW lets guess ,HI caught this and is worried about the breaker. Bet he did not warn them about fpe. Question ,if the unit has built in overcurrent then why do they state breaker/ fuse rating ? should not matter as long as wire is of size. We keep hearing #14 is ok on 30 because unit has protection . Does it ? If yes then what is problem here ? Why do they list breaker size ?

Exactly, according to the Seller nothing was mentioned about the FPE panel.

put in a 20 amp and don't worry it will never trip anyways

if you cant find the breaker, install a fused disconnect with 25 amp fuses, or a disconnect of brand of your choice with 2 pole 25 amp breaker outside next to the unit....

That is the best advice :smile:
